comment on MVP race.
I'm not a math genius,
but one guy seems to be leading
in all three quarterback
except QB Sneaks.
Who would you pick MVP race?
Lamar has 3,955 yards.
Josh Allen has 3,731.
Lamar has 852
rush yards. Josh has 531.
Lamar
has 43 total touchdowns.
Josh has 41.
Lamar has four interceptions.
Josh has six.
But how many fumbles for each
We gonna we gonna we gonna
Hey hey Charles
We gonna do it right now
We gonna
Cause turnovers
Fumbles or turnovers
Let's see
How many Josh
I think Josh has a couple
I think Lamar has a couple
Hey Uncle
It's so close though bro
It is
It is
It's so close
It's so close
And I think it's gonna come down to this think it's going to come down to this last game.
And one of them having to have an extracurricular day.
They got to do something special because it's so close, you know,
to actually define why they deserve that MVP, you know.
They can't fall by the wayside in week 17.
They can't.
The question is, Ocho,
with the Bills already
having a number two seed,
are you going to play Lamar?
Excuse me, Josh Allen.
No, Lamar got to play
because Lamar, they can
win the division.
Oh, yeah.
Win the division, I get a home game.
Mm-hmm.
Then, hey,
who knows?
I'll take my chances.
Hell, I might get you home games.
You never know.
Somebody might get upset, Ocho.
Right.
A 5C might beat somebody.
Well, Lamar would be the 4C.
Mm-hmm.
Three, NFC East AFC West
AFC East
Lamar would be the 3rd seed
if they win? Okay
so yeah see they could get
well if they won
that means they would have
who
Artie?
Nah Pittsburgh could win the division oh the winner okay the winner of the afc north would be the three seed okay okay i see what
you're saying yeah yeah yeah um did we get the uh the fumbles
it's close i said it was close even though when everybody said josh allen
where it was locked up and run away i said no lamar still playing too well
yeah i see playing too well it's not over and it's going to come down i say
it's going to come all the way down to the end of the season
and i believe it will and i think it's close i think it's extremely extremely
extremely close and but people, but here's the thing.
Now, people said Dak, look at Dak numbers last year, 12 and 5.
Lamar had a better record, less touchdown passes, less yards.
He got the MVP.
This year, he has less of the records, better the numbers.
Allen has the better record, similar numbers.
Right.
Okay, Lamar Jackson has five fumble loss, so he has nine total turnovers.
Right.
Josh Allen has two fumbles loss, which means he has eight total
turnovers. So that's how close he is, Ocho.
Even that's close.
That's close. So you got one guy with nine,
the other guy with eight.
One guy with 41 total
touchdowns, the other with 43.
And if I'm not mistaken,
correct me if I'm wrong,
the Bills have to play the Patriots, right?
The Bills play the Patriots.
Okay.
In Foxborough.
And who do the Ravens have to play for their last game?
The Ravens play the Browns.
Oh, shit.
Listen, the Browns beat them last time too, huh?
Yeah.
They ain't beating them this time.
No.
No.
Listen, if I wasn't giving the advantage,
you see,
ain't no goddamn divisional game as long it's
different man i don't know it don't matter what you just watch you just watch the browns the
browns ready that look miles garrett playing his ass off yeah if i'm him if they can't show me a
clear picture go go and get me go and get rebuild but rebuild without me well hey listen listen
a clear picture fuzzy picture you already know what it is.
Listen, you already know
what you get.
And you're not going to be
there long enough
for them to get it together.
No.
You're just not.
You're not going to be
there long enough.
You know?
So, you know.
Somebody give you
two first,
somebody will switch position
with you in the draft.
Absolutely.
Well, you're not going to,
first of all,
you don't want to switch position
with anybody in the draft
because you're going to have
a higher seed than anybody
that's going to be willing to trade.
Right.
If somebody gives you two first-rounders, maybe a player and even a second-rounder for Miles Garrett.
He's 29 years of age, and he's a premier pass rusher.
Those guys don't fall out of trees.
Nope.
Not him.
So, yes, this thing is going to come down to the end.
It's going to be interesting. I don't believe Josh Allen's going to come down to the end it's going to be interesting i don't believe
josh allen's going to play excuse me they're locked into the two seed lamar jackson numbers
could even look better could it be a situation he throws for 4 000 yards over he's gonna throw
for over 4 000 yards does he rush for 148 to give him 1,000? I mean, the man rushed for 4,000, passed for 4,000, rushed for 1,000,
has 41, 42 touchdowns, Ochoa.
I got to give him MVP.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
I mean, Ochoa, I've been telling you,
I've been leaning his way for like the last three, four weeks.
Right.
But with 4,000 pass yards, 1,000 rush yards, 40 touchdown passes, what are we doing here? Right. But with 4,000 pass yards, 1,000 rush yards, 40 touchdown passes,
what are we doing here?
Right.
And not a knock on Josh Allen because Josh Allen's had a phenomenal season.
Yeah.
But I can't let a guy that throws for 4,000 yards rush for 1,000
and with 40-plus touchdown passes, I can't let that season go away in vain.
I can't.
I can't. The Gi go away in vain. I can't. I can't.
The Giants played them.
Ocho.
The Giants played themselves out of the first overall pick.
Remember I told you?
That's why they put your boy in that thing?
Mm-hmm.
DeVito?
Yeah.
The Giants, 3-13, picked up a win at MetLife,
the stadium in its final home game,
thanks to career days by Drew Locke
and rookie Malik Neighbors.
Malik.
Oh, hold on.
Jermaine, whatever his name is.
I ain't finna butcher that man name.
But you know, Jermaine,
you'd rather your team go out there
and fight for every inch
than lay down and just take an ass whipping.
Yeah, you get your ass picked.
You get your ass picked.
That's what you wanted.
But what are the players coming into?
You've got to establish some sort of culture.
We're trying to establish a culture that can lead into next year.
Once we get more pieces in here, I'm sure everything will still work out
how the franchise needed to work out.
Now, New England has the number one new england has the number one pick tennessee
has the number two pick cleveland has the number three pick the giants number three so
is that a situation does somebody come up and wow new england well or do you sit there and take a
travis hunter and here's the thing, Ocho. Yes, sir.
I like Travis Hunter.
But are the Patriots one player away?
Or do you give me two first rounders?
We switch draft positions.
Now I want a first rounder in 25 and 26 and 27.
And plus, I want a second round pick in 26.
And I want a third or fourth round pick in 27.
Is that where we go with this, Ocho?
I don't know.
Because I think they're more than one player away.
That's just me personally.
And I won't travel to go.
I won't travel to Shador.
Clearly, clearly, they're not taking Shador because they just drafted Drake May.
Drake May, yeah.
This is interesting.
This is very interesting.
I think I would love to be in the war room.
I would love to be in the war room with Kraft and Mayo and see what their thoughts is on,
you know, the special skill set that, you know, Travis Hunter has.
What can he do for us?
What can we do, even if we are multiple players away from being able to compete and be in
contention and looking like we used to look, you know, those 20 years when we had Belichick
and Brady.
Can we get a player like Travis Hunter to come in here and help us win?
Can he be a difference maker?
Can he be a difference maker on the defensive side of the ball and the offensive side of the ball?
I mean, that's something that you have to question.
I don't know if he's going to play enough to impact it like that, Ocho.
Huh?
I don't know if he's going to play enough to impact it like that, Ocho. Huh? I don't know if he's going to play.
I think me, personally, what I would do, Ocho, I would trade the pick.
Right.
And I'm going to get me three first.
I'm going to switch because I'm going to still be in the first round.
Right.
But, Ocho, you picks away.
You a lot of guys away.
Yeah.
Especially on the offensive side of the football.
Yeah.
A lot of guys. Yeah. You the offensive side of the football yeah a lot of guys yeah you need wide receivers you need some line you need some d linemen you need a lot of things to go right in new england see the funny covered is bare right
the funny thing about that when you say you need a lot of picks like that
would you name it right now that takes time that's it that takes time that's not happening
no one in two or three years.
You think you're going to fix all the situation or all the pieces?
No.
Because you're going to miss.
You're going to miss some time.
I got a quarterback.
You're going to miss.
I got my quarterback.
Yeah.
Now, can I get me a receiver?
Do I go in free agency?
I'll make a play for T. Higgins.
Now, you see what I saw? Now, I got me. I put in free agency? I'll make a play for T Higgins. Now,
you see what I saw?
Now,
I got milk.
I put in with bootay.
I got Hunter Henry at the tight end position.
I like Mondray,
Remondre Stevens.
Right.
Boom.
Now,
I got some pieces to play with now,
Ocho.
Now I got some chess pieces to deal with.
I like that.
I like that.
I like that.
Because you got the cap space.
Yeah.
I'll pay T. Higgins a premium.
I give him $31, $32 million a year in the wide receiver position.
Ocho, I got five year, $160 for it.
I give him $80 million, $85 million guaranteed.
So now I got a wide receiver to go with my young quarterback.
I got Hunter Henry, solid tight end.
I mean, they got a couple of pieces.
I can work with that, Ocho.
But you look at the pieces.
New England got the first pick now.
I mean, this could change, Ocho.
New England has the first pick.
Tennessee got second. Cleveland,
Giants, Jacksonville,
Carolina, Jets, Las Vegas,
Chicago, New Orleans.
I'm curious how it's going to
pan out. Now, the
draft order might be what it is right
now, but we have to understand what
teams need. Teams are going to
I don't think panic is the right word. They're going to do what's necessary. They are going to, I don't think panic is the right word.
They're going to do what's necessary.
They're going to be on that phone in the war room
doing what's necessary to make sure they get the player they want.
Oh, I ain't even waiting until they get to the war room.
I'm plotting right now.
Yeah, you can't see it now.
I'm plotting right now, Ocho.
Right, most of the time we look at the draft,
we can name who the first five players are going to go.
We can name them. Right now, I couldn tell you you're gonna go first no because guess what free agency happens first so i'm setting my free agent board first now i can plan accordingly
right i get a wide receiver i get a t higgins i don't need a wide receiver in the first two rounds. See now I kill one.
I killed a killer.
Now.
Okay.
What else can I got?
Cause they got,
see how much cap space the Patriots got.
They got boo coop cap space.
Oh yeah.
Boo coop.
Uh,
and cap space they got 131 million in cap space oh i can get i can get me two or two players yeah two or three good ones good ones yes all of them ain't gotta be everybody ain't gotta be
the best t higgins is gonna probably be the number one wide receiver yeah i don't got to be – everybody ain't got to be the best. T. Higgins is going to probably be the number one wide receiver.
Yeah.
I don't need to get the number one wide receiver,
the number one offensive lineman, the number one defensive lineman,
the number one – I don't need to get all that, Ochoa.
Mm-hmm.
I can get number one – I'm going to get T. Higgins.
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse.
Right.
Right.
Hey, hey, hey.
I just want to say, hey, T, look here at look here you're unbelievable talent but you and i
both know you only always gonna be number two in in sense number one number uno he number uno
i'm gonna shoot you straight yeah i would you hey Ocho yeah hey
I'ma tell you
sometimes
this ain't me
but you got to tell him
your boy
you know your boy
cheating on you right
ain't none of my business
I don't even know
why I brought it up
right
but you never
you never gonna be the bottom
or we gonna be number two
now if you okay with that
so be it
I ain't here to judge you but you can only be number two. Now, if you're okay with that, so be it. I ain't here to judge you.
But you can only be number two because he got a number one.
That's who we go home to every night.
It ain't none of my business.
I don't even know why I brought it up.
Come on, now.
Come on, come on, now.
Hey, it ain't no pillow talk.
I'm wide awake.
Yeah.
That's the thing, Ochoa.
I mean, Ochoa, I'm trying to get T. Higgins.
I'm telling the truth.
Oh, yeah.
But he know I ain't lying.
Yeah.
You know what?
Listen, and I say it all the time.
You know, I consider him two ones.
I consider him two ones.
He had three teams in the NFL.
Chat, listen to me.
There are three teams in the NFL that have two number one receivers.
I don't care how you cut it, how you slice it.
That's the Bengals to me.
The Vikings, I consider them to have two number ones as well.
Detroit?
I like Addison.
You like the Lions?
You like Amon Ross St. Brown and Jamison Williams
yeah
Amon Ross St. Brown
now I don't see
Amon
Amon Ross St. Brown
as a
as a dominant figure
as an outside
wide receiver
no
as an outside receiver
he'll slot
he'll slot
he'll slot
yeah
yeah so
that's that's why
I didn't really put them
in in the conversation
and
them young bulls
over there
down in Philly
I see them as two number ones if they yeah for sure I think put them in the conversation. And them young Bulls over there down in Philly,
I see them as two number ones.
Yeah, for sure.
I think Devontae Smith can carry the load on a team
if he had to be at one.
And you know A.J. Brown.
You know what he could do.
You look at Chicago
with Keenan and D.J. Moore.
Yeah.
Roan with more opportunities.
But that's the thing that you got to look at.
You have to ask yourself about one player away.
Normally, that's the quarterback.
Because if I got a choice, Ocho, I'm going to take a quarterback
because he has the ball.
I need guys that's going to score points.
Every time.
At the end of the day, that's how you win in this league, Ocho.
Look at the game.
45-33 and 27. Ocho, ain at the game 45 33 and 27 Ocho ain't
no more you're not winning a whole bunch of games 10-7 right you're just not right you got the score
and if you give me a choice to say defensive guy or a quarterback I'm taking the quarterback I'm
just damn but clearly Seattle uh the Patriots need another wide receiver.
And I'm going at T. Higgins.
I'm going to make him an offer he cannot refuse, Ochoa.
Oh, yeah.
The Dolphins keep their slim AFC playoff hopes alive
with a win over the Browns 20-3.
It wasn't pretty, but Tyler Huntley led Miami Dolphins.
They took care of business, Ochoa.
Now they're 8-8, remains a hotly contested three-way battle
for the AFC final playoff spot.
Hey, the Broncos win, they're in.
Dolphins need a win and a – is it Broncos?
No, the Dolphins need a win plus a Denver loss.
The Bengals – the Bengals, they need the Denver to lose and Miami to lose.
So they're just not out of the woodwork just yet, Ocho.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
And they have to beat Pittsburgh.
That's going to happen.
Miami has to lose.
They're going to lose.
And the Broncos have to lose.
And they're going to lose.
Miami are playing the Jets.
You know,
I don't like the fact
that our future
is in the hands of other teams.
I don't like that.
If we had handled business
at the beginning of the season
instead of putting ourselves
in a hole like we always do
every goddamn year, this one a little worse than others, you know, putting ourselves in a hole like we always do every goddamn year.
This went a little worse than others. And having
to dig ourselves out, we wouldn't be
in this situation. So that bothers me that
we have to rely on other teams and
hope that, hey, we hope you guys win
and we hope these guys lose so we
can get an opportunity to get into the playoffs.
It's unfortunate,
but that's where we are now. So I'm
hoping, I'm hoping,
you know,
all the cars may fall
in our place.
Because if they do,
if they do,
all right,
don't be surprised.
I told you,
I told you the storyline.
Y'all ain't getting there.
I told you the story.
Chiefs ain't playing nobody.
Cause if you,
if you what you said,
what are the Chiefs ain't playing nobody. If you're what you're saying, what are the Chiefs thinking?
So you still believe the Broncos going to beat the Chiefs? Yes.
You do remember how much we put on it, right?
Yeah, we put $5,000 on it. Okay, I just want to
make sure you remember that. I don't want you to forget.
I don't want you to be upset.
I don't want you to blame. I ain't going to be upset.
I don't want no excuses. I want my want you to be upset. I don't want you to blame. I ain't gonna be upset. I don't want no excuses.
I want my
money in ones too.
Because
I'm gonna go celebrate.
So
the Broncos
are in with
a win. If they win, they don't need nothing else.
They can still
get in if the Bengals
lose. That ain't gonna happen, but go ahead.
But
I like our chance. I don't even want to think
of anything else. Check this out, Ocho.
Miles Garrett made NFL history in Week 17
by becoming the first player to tally
at least 14 sacks in four consecutive
seasons. Garrett notched two sacks
today, which is how so happens to be
his 29th birthday to meet the
milestone. I mean,
if they had a little better record, he'd smack
down with the defensive player of the year. Yeah.
Most definitely.
I don't really know
who's going to win defensive player of the year. I really don't know,
Joe. I really don't.
Because I don't think anybody's
had that year like, oh my God.
It's got to be him. Yeah. Well, they ran away with it. Nobody ran away.'re like, Oh my God, it's gotta be him.
Yeah.
Well,
they ran away with it.
Nobody ran away.
I mean,
he's probably going to win the sack total.
I mean,
what he has 14.
I mean,
he has 14 now.
I think Hendrickson has 13.
Okay.
It's going to be interesting to see what,
what Pittsburgh don't play until next week.
We'll see what Pittsburgh,
what they can do on,
on,
on borough.
Yeah.
But right now and Cleveland, I mean, he could get another sack or two
against Lamar, but when I look at it, I mean,
I mean, who's your defensive player of the year?
T.J. Watt, Myles Garrett.
Listen, T.J. Watt, Miles Garrett. Listen, T.J. Watt and Miles Garrett have been playing.
Hendricks have 14.
So he's tied right now with Trey Hendricks.
They are tied?
Yeah, 14.
Both have 14.
You know what?
We got to see how this last game goes.
We got to see how this last game goes.
I'm hoping.
Well, we know Hendricks is not going to get it.
Not on that bad defense. Right. He is not going to get it. Not on that bad defense.
Right.
He not going to get it.
Yeah.
Damn.
So it's probably going to be
out of Miles Garrett
and TJ again.
Probably.
I'm trying to think to myself,
who else is playing
stellar defense
from an individual standpoint,
regardless of position?
I mean, it's just those two.
Mm-hmm.

Brock Bowers record-setting day pushing the Raiders to a win versus the Saints. The Raiders posted back-to-back wins for the first time this season
with a 25-10 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
Rookie tight end Brock Bowers led the Raiders in receiving with seven catches,
77 yards, and set several records.
Bowers set an NFL
record for the most receiving yards by a rookie
tight end in a single season.
And the most reception by a rookie
in a single season...
Hold on. The most reception by a rookie in a single
season? Oh, in the second quarter.
Right? Is that what you're saying?
Yeah, exactly.
Okay. In the second quarter.
Bowers also set a rated single-season record for the most receiving yards
by a rookie and the most receptions.
I mean, what's the record?
The most reception by a tight end is Jason Witten,
116?
Or Zach Ertz?
116?
They were
dealing, what?
What does he have now, 108?
Because I think Malik Neighbors has like
106. He's right there on him.
About Zach Ertz, okay.
Zach Ertz has 116. Brock
Bowers has how many? 108 now?
So he's nine catches away from
breaking the record. Hey,
all I know, I'm throwing in all i know i'm throwing in the ball
i'm throwing the ball every day every day oh i forgot pat certain gonna get some votes too
oh yeah because when he covered jamar chase had throw on what six seven targets he had three
catches for 27 yards against certain and when when certain wasn't on him, what's it called?
Joey.
Joe Burrow hunted him.
Well, hey, oh, you going to guard somebody else?
Jamar, get ready.
So Sertan is going to get some votes.
He good, man.
That joker flew in.
Oh, he good.
Oh, Joe, that joker effortless.
He real nice.
Hey, listen, to be that size, to be that big.
Yeah, he tall.
He tall.
He like 6'2", 6'2 1⁄2". Hey, listen, to be that fluid, to be that smooth, he got great hips,
great technique.
He can play off.
He can play man.
He's really good and always in position to make a play.
Always in position to make a play.
I like him. I like him.
I like him a lot.
Ocho, Tampa exploded offensively, punting just once all afternoon,
opened the game with five straight scoring drives.
Baker Mayfield posted his first career game in which he threw for 350-plus yards,
five touchdowns, connected with Mike Evans for two of those
as he became the seventh player in NFL history with six or more seasons
with at least 10 touchdown receptions.
And now I think he's what, 80 yards?
He's like 80 yards away from getting another thousand yard
or another a thousand receiving yard season.
Right.
And they play New Orleans next week.
Oh yeah, he gonna get that.
He definitely gonna get that.
And then you know what?
He don't have to deal with Marshawn Latimer
either. Nope. Yeah.
You go out there and have yourself. So Baker
was 27 of 32.
359. Five
touchdowns.
Bucky Irving, 20
carries, 113 yards. They ran the ball
40 times for 202.
Mike Evans had eight catches for 97
yards and two touchdowns.
Baker was sensational. Bryce Young
was 15-28, 203,
two touchdowns, no interceptions.
It was just overmatched. Adam Thielen
had a day. Five for
110, two touchdowns.
They just don't
have enough offensively on Chelsea.
Too much. Too much. Too much for
I probably can't deal with.
Mike Evans needs 85 yards don't have enough offensively too much too much too much too much firepower to deal with uh
mike evans needs 85 yards to have that'll be at 11 straight or 12 straight thousand yard season Be as level straight Now Jerry has the record with 14
Total 1,000 yard seasons
Woo
Um
He gonna get that though
He definitely getting that
Oh yeah
Oh I'm gonna feed him
I'm gonna feed him
I'm gonna make sure he gets it
Right
But Baker's playing extremely well
Baker gotta have like 30 something passes, doesn't he?
Baker has 39 touchdown passes?
Damn.
Wow.
39?
Yes. Shit. 39? Yes.
Shit.
And he's over 4,000 yards, right?
Oh, yeah.
If I'm not mistaken.
I just looked at it.
Boy, it's going to be, hey, Ocho, it's going to be real interesting, this Pro Bowl.
What happened?
The AFC Pro Bowl quarterbacks.
Yeah.
You got Joey B.
You got Mahomes 15-1.
You got Josh Allen.
And you got Lamar Jackson.
Somebody get left home to take three.
But listen, this might be a year where they change the rules and take four.
They changing the rules.
Now, the NFC.
You got Jared Goff.
Goff.
You got Baker Mayfield.
You got Jalen Hurt.
Yeah.
You got Sam Darnold.
Darnold, balling.
You know what? I can you know what I can't wait
I can't wait to get the Pro Bowl
I can't wait to get the Pro Bowl
cause you know
I gotta work
and I'm finna
I'm finna get everybody autographed
and they finna sign my jersey
I want everybody autographed
and give me a jersey
uh
Ocho
now it's time for our final segment of the evening now it's time for our
final segment of the evening now it's time
for Q and A
well god damn that shit
went by oh my bad my bad
hey can you
do me a favor what
we should start we should start we should start
like a little part right for me
to kind of help me with my discipline when it
comes to to use the derogatory language
every time i curse um i put a dollar in the pot right your whole check will be gone at the end
of the month but this is the thing and then we we give it we give it away to i like that idea
sure i'm all for it yeah matter of fact no let's make it $20
every time I curse
$20
man you will have no money
$20
and at the end of each month
we
we tally it up
and we give it away
to somebody in the chat
okay
I'm good
that's a good idea
Blah91 said
uh
I've never seen
so many good rookies
in the NFL
is that indicative
of the rule changes?
I mean, it all depends.
Look, they throw the ball.
You've added games. You
throw the ball more than you ever have.
If you notice,
it ain't a whole lot of rookie running backs doing this.
I mean, Bucky Urban, I think, is the only rookie running
back, and I think he's pretty close to
1,000 yards. But the receivers,
you look at Malik Dahl, you look at neighbors,
you look at Brian Thomas, you look at Brock Bowers,
you saw the quarterbacks come in, you see Jane Daniels come in,
and that's what you're going to get.
But these guys are more skilled now.
They do all these 7-on-7 camps.
They grew up in 7-on-7, whereas before that didn't happen.
They're getting coached by NFL guys that throw in coaches.
These guys got throwing coaches in high school.
Yeah, yeah, most definitely.
In college.
So it's different.
But the rookies are, yeah, the rule changes helped.
But at the end of the day, guys still got to go out there and-
Got to perform.
And got to perform.
Yeah.
You're absolutely right. Aaron Owen said a 60-meter dash between
CJ2K,
Prime,
Tyreek, Bo Jackson, Daryl Green.
Who you taking?
In a Prime?
In a Prime?
In a Prime?
In a Prime.
I'm trying.
I ain't never seen nobody beat Daryl Green.
And I'm talking about he raced
the Olympic champs.
Yeah.
That'd be a good race.
Prime. Absolute prime.
Well, that would be
a great race.
That'd be a good one.
Damn, that's a good one.
I think I'm... I think I'm I think
I go with
Prime or
both
both
both
both
Twitchy
you see
how
Tyreek
is
right now
I'm gone
now you
see
now you
know time
Twitchy
oh yeah
yeah
I know
that
I know
that
yeah
time
time real Twitchy yeah I know that I know that yeah time time real twitchy
well that
that
now see
that's what they
should have had
right
but you also
they used to have
that NFL's fastest man
oh yeah
Daryl Green
Daryl Green
yeah
yeah
Woody
they had Herschel Walker
Herschel Walker
they had
I don't know if Sam Grady ran, but they had Willie Gault.
Yeah.
Oh, they had some guys.
Oh, yeah.
I done seen it go across Twitter a few times.
They had it running in them gray shorts.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So bad.
Jeremy Shepard said, the greatest defensive team in NFL history versus the greatest offensive team in NFL history.
Who wins and why?
So what are we talking about?
Are we talking about the 85 Bears?
No, you're talking about the 86 Bears or the 2000?
Yeah, not as you meant.
Because I'm like, okay.
He said the greatest NFL team.
Now, who do you think the greatest?
Is it the 85 ravens is it the
o2 bucks is it the uh the uh the 12 the 13 seahawks is it the 76 steelers i mean what it who
who do you consider the greatest team okay offensively is it the 07? Is it the 07 Patriots? Is it the 13 Broncos? Is it
to the 83? Is it the 83
Washington football team?
Boy.
I'm biased
because I happen to be, I wasn't on the
defense, but I was on the Ravens with that
defense and I saw it up close and
personal. You had to see it. It's different.
But that's when they let you punish the
quarterback. And all those teams, for the
most part, with the exception of the
12 Seahawks,
would let you punish the quarterback.
You could punish him in 2000. You could punish
him in 2002. You could punish him in the
80s. You could punish him in the 70s.
And you're talking about punishing the quarterback.
The quarterback, yeah. Anybody on the offensive line. You could punish anybody. Yeah, receivers. And you're talking about punishing the quarterback. The quarterback, yeah. Anybody on the
offensive side. You can punish anybody. Yeah, receivers. Oh, yeah.
Everybody get it. Yeah.
There was no, no, no,
nobody. Nobody was spared.
Wide receivers,
quarterback, runners. Oh, yeah.
Greatest.
And today, Ocho the thing is is that
they
the thing is that
what teams figured out
is that the mistakes that they made
the 85 Bears
they were known for the Bear defense
so what they did they covered up the 85 Bears, they were known for the Bear defense. So what they did,
they covered up the center and the two guards.
4-6, right?
46 defense. And what they would do
is that they would stretch it. So they would
take Wilbur Marshall and put
him over the tight end.
And they would take Dent
and kick him outside.
The problem that people have is that
they were taking a tight end or the running back to try to block Richard Dent or Hampton.
Well, that's not going to work.
And so what they did, they started fanning it.
So they would take the tackle because now what they realized is that that guy wasn't going to come.
He had a tight end in man.
But when he blocked, he would come and hit your quarterback in the mouth
but what they started doing is releasing
that guy take the tackle
and kick
now if they brought both of them you just
look hot because normally the backer
the inside backer was going to have to try and take you
so you just get width
to hit you with the ball you take off running
but that would be great
I'm going with like I said I'm taking the 2000 I'm taking the 2000 to hit you with the ball you take off running. But that would be great.
I'm going with, like I said, I'm taking the 2,000. I'm taking the 2,000 Ravens as the greatest defense.
I don't care what nobody say.
Yeah, and I'm only taking on the Ravens and the Demons
because I saw them.
Because I didn't get to watch the other teams.
I didn't see the 85, 86 Bears.
I wasn't able to see them.
I didn't see the Steelers when they had the steel curtain back then.
You know, but that, that, that too, man, I don't think people understand.
Isaiah Lancaster says, Uncle Ocho, is this the best generation of quarterbacks?
Mahomes, Lamar, Allen, Burr, Herbert, and does Lamar or Allen overcome the Chiefs?
Well, it's either now or never.
Look, we've always had an influx of quarterbacks.
You had Montana.
You had Elway.
You had Marino.
You had Kelly.
You've always had quarterbacks.
Right.
They're just young.
I mean, because think about it.
All those quarterbacks, only one of them won a Super Bowl.
All the quarterbacks you mentioned, only one of them won a Super Bowl.
Right.
Only two of those have an MVP.
If you think about it right now, Ocho,
only two quarterbacks in the entire league
have Super Bowl as starters.
That's Mahomes, and that's...
Mark Jackson.
No, Aaron Rodgers.
Oh, you say MVP. My bad.
MVP. Super Bowl. Has Super Bowl.
Oh, Super Bowl. Okay, okay, okay, okay. As starters. Oh, you said MVP. My bad. MVP. Super Bowl. Has Super Bowl. Oh, Super Bowl. Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Okay.
And starters.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
My bad.
Hey, all three have MVPs.
Rodgers, Mahomes, and Lamar.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
Oh, I forgot.
Who?
In the Rams.
Stafford has a Super Bowl.
Oh, Stafford.
Oh, yeah.
Stafford, yeah.
Don't remind me. Don't remind me.
Don't remind me.
Because that wasn't
no pass interference on that fourth.
That no look pass was the greatest
throw in NFL history.
That was nice.
Given the circumstances.
That was nice.
That's the Super Bowl, Ocho.
That ain't no preseason game. That ain't no preseason game.
That ain't no regular season game.
That's for all the marbles.
Yeah, I can give credit where credit's due.
That was nice.
Oh, Russ, too.
Russ got a Super Bowl.
It's four.
So, Russ, Rodgers, Mahomes, and Stafford.
Stafford.
Only two have Super Bowl MVPs.
That's Mahomes and Rodgers.
Only three have regular season MVPs. That's Mahomes and Rodgers. Only three have regular season MVPs.
That's Rodgers, Mahomes, and Lamar.
Right.
But, hey, these guys are young, too, so they're going to be duking it out for a while, little chum.
You got Lamar at 27.
You got Allen probably 27.
Burrow's like 28.
Herbert is like 25, 26.
Mahome, boy, just turned, 29 so they're gonna be they're gonna be they're gonna be going at this for a while locho and i'm glad of it brandon
martinez so you guys keep forgetting how many weapons lamar has to compete to alan he's carrying
buffalo bro bruh it's not an easy decision. You can make
you can...
You can make
a compelling case for either guy.
It's just, Ocho,
somebody got to argue for the defense.
Somebody got to argue for the prosecution.
It's really that simple, Ocho.
And the funny thing about it is
it's so close.
It is. You would damn near have to nitpick.
You would have to nitpick
and find something
to say, well, Josh
should win it for this reason, or Lamar Jackson
should win it for this reason. When the numbers are so
close, the records are so close.
I mean, listen, I think it's going to come
down to this last game. You said
Josh Allen might not play because they have the number
two seed? The number two seed locked up.
There can't be anything but the number two seed.
Well, listen, that's the case.
You think Josh Allen might sit and might not play.
Well, Lamar Jackson might get it
just for the performance he has
against the Browns this week coming up.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah.
Oh, Joe Flacco won the Super Bowl.
And he got an MVP.
We forget about Joe. And because it was so long it was so long ago well I mean he won more more recent than Aaron Rodgers but he won one
and he was the Super Bowl MVP now you could have made a case for Jacoby because Jacoby,
he saved,
he and Flacco saved the day
against the Broncos
on third and forever.
Called the game
when it took down.
With a safety,
the safety misjudged it.
Raheem Moore,
yep,
he did.
Ocho,
Tim Lee said,
if the Chiefs
are so scared
of the Bengals,
which I know they're not,
why would the Chiefs let them in?
Can't have it both ways, Ocho.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Who mentioned anything about them being scared?
I didn't say anything.
I didn't say anything.
I don't even speak on the Chiefs, you know?
I don't say anything bad about the Chiefs.
Now, what I have done is anytime there was a game going on, I would just say the Chiefs
were going to lose.
Just to say it, really not really understanding that because of Mahomes, they're probably not going to lose
anyway. I just said for
context purposes, just to
go against them. That's all. That's all.
They're really good. They're really good and they will
always be good as long as... Y'all ain't going to make the playoffs.
Who are you talking to?
You.
You don't think we're going to make the playoffs? No.
What part about... What about
the big N or the big O?
No.
Okay, we'll see.
We'll see.
Now, when we make it, I don't want you to say play or off.
No more.
We'll see.
Trey Caesar said,
do you think Commanders win a Super Bowl by the end of JD5 rookie deal?
Well, it's a lot easier to win on a rookie deal than it is when you start.
Because by the time he get a deal, you got to understand what the money is going to be.
He's going to be 70 million.
We're going to be nasty, boy.
Because he's going to sign a deal after his third year.
So that's two years away, Ocho.
Yeah.
It's going to be $70 million.
Hey, good work.
Let me get all that too.
Yes.
If you ain't got no money, go get it from the Federal Reserve.
But I need all mine.
Question.
If Larry was to win a ring in 2008, where would you rank his playoff run?
Larry.
Larry Fitzgerald.
Oh, oh, oh.
That run he was on?
Yeah.
And that thing was nasty.
But who had a better playoff run, Larry Fitzgerald or Cooper Cupp?
Man.
But see, Coop finished it off.
Because here's the thing.
You got to think about what Coop did in the regular season, Ocho.
142, 1942, triple crown, and he showed up every game.
In the playoffs.
And he was cutting up.
But Larry, that was crazy.
That would have been crazy.
Jerry had some runs.
I mean, when Jerry did.
When Jerry did have runs. There's, when Jerry did. When Jerry did have runs,
there's a reason he got on the record
in the postseason and the regular season for receivers.
But yeah, man.
That Super Bowl, the NFC Championship,
the game against the Falcons.
Fitz had a run.
I give him credit. Fitz had a run. I give him credit.
Fitz had a run,
but I think I'm going to go with Cupp.
Don't dub, said Unc.
Give my boy Zach Brown some attention for defensive player of the year.
Not a household name,
but he's been playing his tail long.
That's the mic backer.
Oh, man.
Hey, that's the mic backer from Philly, huh?
Yeah, 53.
He nice, boy.
He is.
He is.
Listen, I don't pay attention
to linebackers that much,
but because of his play,
you ain't got no choice
but to know.
Yeah, he jump off the screen.
You got to play.
Yeah, you got no choice
but to know.
Oh, yeah.
He nice.
He pops, Ocho.
He pops.
You might not know him.
I mean, he doesn't have
one of the big names.
He's not like a, what's the guy in San Fran?
Fred Warner.
Fred Warner.
You know, you got Fred Warner.
You got Zaire Franklin.
Yeah.
You got B-Wags in Washington.
Right.
Zach Ryan, boy.
Ooh.
Yeah.
Very nice.
He can play.
He can play.
I love his game.

for 2025
any big resolutions
or goals

my only resolution
I ain't chasing lies
I'm gonna let y'all have it
whatever y'all say
I am
whatever y'all say I did
whether it was
intentional or unintentional
whatever you say
I'm done

I ain't giving y'all no more content.
Produce all the content you want,
but you will not get me following up.
I'm done. That's my
only resolution. 24 was great

the best years. Yeah, I had some setbacks.
Yeah, I had some ups and downs, but it's been one of the best years. Yeah, I had some setbacks. Yeah, I had some ups and downs, but it's
been one of the best years. 25
is going to be even better because
it's gotten off. It's already gotten
up to a great start. We got
shows. We're going to have the tour. We better
understand how to do the tours.
It's going to be bigger and better. We're going to go to
more cities, but that's it. That's my
only resolution. I am not
chasing a lie.
So I let y'all say what all y'all say.
I see it. Do I see it? If I don't
see it, somebody send it to me. Lie,
lie, lie. I ain't chasing it, though. I'm not
going to respond to it. Go ahead, Ocho.
My New Year's resolution is
to not curse as much.
I'm in therapy.
I'm in counseling right now for
my cursing. I like cursing, chat. You have to listen to me on why I like cursing. I feel that cursing is a sentence enhancer. You know, it's no different than when you cook and you add seasoning, it gives it flavor. man you my dog man i love you man you see that sounds good but if i say hey you know what man
i fucking love you it's it's the difference in meaning and delivery and the way you say things
that's why i think curse words are so important but i think i'm gonna try to trim back on it a
little bit i'm gonna trim back on a little bit and that's good luck with that resolution
all right good luck with that we're gonna get a lot of money black ninja say what's up

Michael Penix Jr., 19-35, 223 and one touchdown
and an interception and a losing effort.
The Vikings defeated the Packers 27-25,
and now they put themselves in position to be the number one seed

What else we got here?
Eagles clinched the NFC East title.
Saquon Barkley is now, he went over 2,000 yards. He now has 2,005 with 101 rush yards on Sunday
against the Giants.
Saquon Barkley will have the greatest rushing season,
single season in NFL history,
breaking Eric Dickerson's record of 2,105 set in 1984.
As they crushed the Cowboys 41-7.
Who else did this?
The Bills defeated the Jets 40-14.
Aaron Rodgers had one of his worst days.
Giants played themselves out of the number one overall pick
with a 45-33 victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
But the guys said, we don't care about no number one pick.
We try to set a culture.
We're trying to win.
We'll let the front office worry about that.
The Dolphins kept their slim playoff hopes alive
with a 23-3 victory over the Cleveland Browns.
Now they need to win and get some help.
The Raiders won back-to-back games for the first time this season
with a 25-10 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
But the story, Brock Bowers set an NFL record
for the most receiving yards by a tight end in his rookie season.
Most catches by a tight end in his rookie season.
Has a chance, outside chance, to break the NFL record.
Held by Zach Ertz of 116 catches, Brock Bowers now has 108 with nine catches.
He'll have the single-season record.
Bucks defeated the Panthers, 48-14, behind a 350-plus-yard passing day
and five touchdowns by Baker Mayfield.
